Eyelid surgery is popular today for refreshing the appearance and reducing discomfort caused by drooping eyelids. At Ageworth, we understand that choosing eyelid surgery is a personal step. Whether it is for a medical or cosmetic reason, our experienced doctor in Amersfoort is ready to guide you through the process.
Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess skin and fat around the eyes. The most common procedure is upper eyelid surgery, which removes excess skin and sometimes fatty tissue from the upper eyelid. This creates a fresher look and can reduce physical complaints, such as limiting the field of vision due to drooping eyelids.
Droopy eyelids are caused by a combination of genetics, skin aging and sun exposure. As the skin ages, elasticity decreases, causing excess skin and eyelids to droop. This creates a tired or aged appearance and can even affect your field of vision.
Upper eyelid surgery offers several benefits:
At Ageworth, we start with a personal intake to discuss your needs and expectations and create a customized treatment plan. We offer consultations both at our Amersfoort clinic and in Apeldoorn, whichever is most convenient for you.
After eyelid surgery, rest is essential for proper recovery. Swelling and bruising may occur in the first few days after surgery. Our aftercare instructions include:
The healing process of an upper eyelid correction will take about twelve weeks. From then on, the final results will be seen. The effect of treatment is relatively long-lasting: an average of ten to fifteen years. However, the duration of the result depends on a combination of your lifestyle, skin type and genes. Should your eyelids start to droop after that time due to aging, you can make a follow-up appointment for an upper eyelid correction treatment at our cosmetic clinic in Amersfoort.
Eyelid surgery is covered by health insurance in some cases, depending on the degree of visual field impairment and medical necessity. In many cases, a referral from the primary care physician is required to qualify for reimbursement. Click here to see if you qualify for reimbursement.
